Snip snip

Ok, ladies, listen up. You know when you buy a coat or a skirt that has pleats of some sort, there are those little threads that are lightly tacked in that hold the bottom of the pleat together? Well, there is a reason they are lightly tacked in---because they are meant to be cut out before you wear the garment!

Clearly, this is a pet peeve of mine. You are doing a disservice to the lovely piece of clothing you bought by not letting the pleat open up, and frankly, you kind of look like you have no idea what you are doing when you get dressed. Seriously, you cannot tell me that you thought the coat was supposed to have that bubble effect on your backside when you bought it. So, is this just laziness or do people really have no idea?

This will not solve any of the important issues that the world is facing right now, but please, I beg you, let the pleats go free.
